I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again:

If you want to put the South away EARLY in 2008 for the GOP, put forward a Thompson/Gingrich ticket.

They would rock the South, and the GOP would basically need to spend nothing there.

Why would you weigh the ticket down with Gingrich?

It would be better to pick someone from a swing state, like Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesnowta.

Well, he’d better hurry up and decide. The candidates will be decided by Feb. 2008 — 10 months from now.

I would have a lot of trouble pulling the lever for that ticket. Gingrich is NOT Presidential material.

I don’t understand the fascination over Gingrich either. The best he can do is stay out the race and be an advisor or something.

Mr. Baselice noted that support for Mr. Giuliani, Mr. McCain and Mr. Gingrich has eroded since January.

The more people learn about Rudy, the less they like him.

Get to it Fred! My prediction is an announcement on the tonight show in early May. McCain is probably out by September citing "health reasons" and gives Thompson a strong endorsement.

How about Thompson/Romney? I agree with your Gingrich assessment - wayyy too many problems there despite his many great ideas.
